Hop Hop Sew

I put all those triangles to use this weekend and a mini-quilt was born. It still needs to be pressed, and then I think I’ll make it into a size we can use around the house.

The triangles were leftover from making these blocks:

The quilt turned out fab.

I got myself a bunny this weekend. The kids think I got it for them… I didn’t. As long as they clean out the cage though we’ll keep it our secret.

He’s a sweet little guy and very mellow…so he fits right in. If I had my way I’d be running a full blown rabbitry by this summer….my husband loves my hobbies (not). Forget Cluck Cluck Sew….Hop Hop Sew here I come! ;)

Oh so sweet (the bunny, but the quilt is nice too). Your posy post made me think about my childhood growing up on a farm. We got bunnies right after moving there and were told they were both males. Peter had babies shortly thereafter. We had tons of bunnies and I still have a few photos of them. Unfortunately I'm allergic now, but I love going to look at them at the county fair. Lucky you!

Oh my gosh! Is he not the cutest?! What will you name him?Your half square little quilt is adorable. I dont know what it is about half square triangles but I love them. I want to make a whole quilt using just them.

We have two bunnies that are a bonded pair. They are litter trained and have free roam of our house and I love them to death! Make sure he eats lots of hay and fresh veggies and he can live a very long time! Wonderful pets, hopefully mine will forgive me for the kitten we are adopting this weekend..

OK, I'm stealing your design idea - I'm liking that very much! Bun-bun is too cute! My mom grew up having a rabbitry, but it was during the Depression, and they were not for pets and she didn't give them names.....

We had calves and goats and ducks and geese and sheep, as well as cats and dogs as pets when I was growing up. I think she was making up for the bunnies.

OHMYGOODNESS. Well, if you get tired of him, you can send him here! He's SUCH a cutie. I think he should be your quilt model from here on out! :-)

Does he have a "stitchy" name??

My husband says we have to always live in the city. He won't let me move to the country, because he says he needs the city ordinances to keep our pet population to an appropriate number. I'd own one of everything if I could!!

Love the triangles! Great colors.I want a bunny too, but I am waiting for just the right one. It (he or she) needs to be white and really fuzzy, so I can brush it and spin it's fur. I want to spoil it. I think that won't be too hard.

Bunny droppings make the ideal fertilizer -- the perfect balance of chemicals, from what I've read, so the bunny is really an investment in your garden! See? It's all perfectly clear that you NEEDED that bunny.

Congrats to the new bunny mom. I miss my big guy so much! I had a Flemish Giant. He was a big boy. You'll enjoy him so much. Just be sure to pick him up alot and pet alot! Love your little triangle creation. Thanks for sharing. I love your posts. Have a good week.Sherry

Our bunny we had for 10 years died a year ago. Now we have a 9 pound dark brown rabbit named Bates. I love having rabbits, though I have to disagree that they're always so 'calm' like someone said... it does train you never to leave fabric, quilts, or books on the floor or within reach, though!
